Pros

-Flexible hours -Choose which department in which you would like to work -After a year, you get holiday pay, fringe hours, and paid vacation -If you're friendly with the management you can get rained and advanced within the department

Cons

-Management capability varies from department to department -Work on all holidays except Christmas -Must work through your "probationary" period to get holiday pay -Must work a full a year to get fringe hours (paid for average hours worked on holiday+time and a half for that shift), and vacation time -Management way too lax on employees -It's union, so it's about seniority not merit -If you do work in a supervisory position get ready for a lot of insubordinate employees and not a lot of consequences: Meijer has a "three strikes" rule when it comes to "no calls/no shows" and other absences, but employees seem to get around that
